We demonstrate frequency redshifting and blueshifting of dispersive waves at group velocity horizons of solitons in fibers. The tunnelling probability of waves that cannot propagate through the fiber-optical solitons (horizons) is measured and described analytically. For shifts up to two times the soliton spectral width, the waves frequency shift with probability exceeding 90% rather than tunnelling through the soliton in our experiment. We also discuss key features of fiber optical Cherenkov radiation such as high efficiency and large bandwidth within this framework.
